Well, it’s that time again! The election is soon approaching and I am anticipating a busy 4 days. Yep! 4 days.
On Wednesday night , I stopped by Constantine’s office to walk. To my surprise they had already left- but Whitney and I met up with them in Maitland.
Yesterday, I made a trip to Orange County for the Tom Lee Reception and Sign Waving. We had a very good crowd. I even bumped into Jim Stelling and Sharon. Of course, Jim gave me a hard time for being in the OC HQ. But while I was there I did get a chance to get my pix taken with Tom Lee. I’ve had the chance to meet him several times before- but I keep forgetting the camera. And wouldn’t you know it. I left the house again without it. Luckily, one of the UCF YR’s was kind enough to take a picture and email it to me. After the meet and greet we all proceeded to the intersection of 50 and 436 to wave our candidates Tom Lee, Andy Gardiner, Charlie Crist and Sherry McInvale on to victory.
Today I stopped by Mica’s office for the counter-protest. When I got there the Democrats were already setting up. All 3 of them. They did end up getting about 3 more people to come by- but that was it. I was a bit surprised to see them waving a flag- instead of burning it. Of course, the Dems brought their own press.
For our counter- protest we ended up having about 6 people as well. Jim Baumford came prepared with signs and people. The Maitland Police refereed the scene- I guess hoping to break up a fight- but they got none.
The highlight however had to be when Chagnon showed up with his golden retriever. I think he must have been lost when he came over and shook Skip’s hand. (Who was wearing a Katherine Harris T-shirt!) Baumford spoke up and told him that he was at the wrong party and directed him to the other street corner. How sad. I felt sorry for him- he obviously couldn’t read- since we also had a sign that said- ” Is that what you call an apology, John Kerry? Must be a product of liberal education.
